Collage Houses.....1-2-3

I spent the day preparing new class samples

for  House Collage Class next week:

Fusible Timtex....cut into house shape

Now the FUN begins:

Fuse fabric scraps onto the Timtex house...

I put on a few scraps, then fuse, then add more scraps...

This is the third little house.....they are addicting!

This makes a good background....but they need a focal point.

 I pulled out the stencils:

I decided to go with a bird theme.....the RAVEN is my muse

 Then I pulled out the Thermofax Screens:

Margaret Applin just made this feather screen for me...

These are becoming......bird houses!

The last house is stenciled and screened...

They still need something more:

I pulled out my lunch box full of found metal objects...

The metal house numbers play nicely with the stenciled numbers.

Fused Collage Houses

The students will be able to complete these in a 3 hour class.

Labels fused to the back.

Rusted Fabric scraps made great backing fabric.

I decided to do a final photo shoot with the RAVEN:

All of the sudden.....GUNNR is interested in what is going on

Yup, he is up on the table to get a personal introduction

to the RAVEN...

Let's shake hands Mr. Raven:

I'm Gunnr.....nice to meet you!
